Final Fantasy IV - Kain Cosplay (Coming soon)

I have been out of the cosplay scene for a while, but am starting a very ambitious project soon.  In the coming weeks I will begin recreating Kain's armor from Final Fantasy IV.  My planning puts the materials as follows:

• Styrofoam - for the base structure
• Body filler (Bondo) - for the outer finish
• Compression clothing (Underarmor) - Shirt under armor
• Cloth - the hanging pieces

The plan is to carve out the base structure from styrofoam and then use car body filler to create the metal-like finish.  It should prove to be a very exciting project in the months to come.
